The Ghana Football Association President Kwesi Nyantakyi has resigned from his position as head of the association after being captured in the Anas expose’.
Kwesi Nyantakyi was seen in the Anas Aremeyaw Anas video collecting an amount of $65000 from a supposed investor which has triggered many Ghanaians calling for such a decision from him.
He made this decision after a meeting with the Executive Committee of the Ghana Football Association on last Friday afternoon.Below is the statement from the first vice president of Confederation of African Football [CAF]
“After a meeting of the Executive Committee this afternoon I decided to resign as President of the Ghana Football Association”.
“It stemmed out of the controversies generated by investigative report of Tiger Eye PI. In the said report I committed a series of errors of indiscretion. I gravely associated the highest office of the land –the presidency- with private discussions I had with “Scammers” who deceived me into thinking they were genuine persons interested in investing in our country.”
“I hereby apologies unreservedly to the father of the Nation, H.E. Nana Akufo Addo, H.E. the Vice President, Dr. Mahamadu Bawumia, Hon. Ministers and Deputy Ministers of State for indiscretion in associating them with the private conversations on the video.”
“I wish to clarify that at no time prior to or subsequent to any deliberations on the video did I consult, contact or inform any Government official about discussions on the video. I take sole and personal responsibility for the proceedings on the video.”
“I wish to apologies to my family, work colleagues, friends, associates and the people of Ghana for the disappointment my indiscretion has caused them.This by no means is an admission of any other alleged wrong doing in the video”
However, the Wa All Stars Football Club President have also received 90 days ban from FIFA and he’s currently under investigations.
